Award RIBA South Award 2023
As you approach the Vishuddha Yoga Centre, situated on a charming street in the heart of central Oxford, it is hard not to be immediately struck by the building’s unique design. The contemporary treatment of its exterior blends effortlessly with the surrounding historic architecture, and the finish in copper adds a distinctive touch that sets the building apart. The jury felt that the architects’ use of pre-patinated copper for the window and door reveals successfully echoed the painted reveals of its neighbours, and the omitted rainwater pipes were a masterstroke of Minimalist design.
